Like many of the protesters at Occupy Wall Street in New York, Amanda Vodola is young, underemployed and loaded with student debt. She spends her days running around, helping【C1】______the movement, and her evenings waiting tables at a restaurant in Brooklyn. Last spring, she graduated from Fordham University【C2】______a degree in English. "I grew up with this narrative that to get a good job I need to go to school," she says. But the job she has " is not enough to pay the bills. " And the bills she’s【C3】______most about are the ones tied to that narrative: the $ 30,000 she【C4】______in college loans.
In November, when their six-month grace period runs【C5】______, Vodola and millions of other students who graduated in May have to start【C6】______their loans. Repayment requirements for private loans kick in regardless of whether【C7】______have found jobs. Since employment rates for recent college graduates have【C8】______in the past two years, as have starting salaries, the【C9】______of a sharp rise in student-loan delinquencies (到期未付) has led some economists to【C10】______that this could be the next financial crisis, rippling (波及) into the wider economy. Total US student-loan debt, which exceeded credit-card debt【C11】______the first time last year, is on track to【C12】______$ 1, 000 billion this year. That’s a nearly 8%【C13】______over last year.
But neither these【C14】______nor the voices of students,【C15】______by debt, at protests in cities and on campuses【C16】______the nation are likely to keep the families of high school seniors【C17】______seeing a brand-name education as a【C18】______to a better life. They’ve long been told that higher education is an【C19】______in the future—even as the costs of college has【C20】______538% over the past 30 years. [br] 【C19】
选项
A、investment
B、instrument
C、indication
D、inspiration
答案
A
解析
名词辨义。空格前面为an,需要填入可数名词。前文中提到那些高中毕业生的家庭认为名校教育是获得更美好生活的入场券,也就是说,他们一直以来都被告知,更高等的教育是一项对未来的投资,只有投入才能有所回报。investment“投资”符合题意。instrument意为“器具,工具”;indication意为“迹象,标示”;inspiration意为“灵感”,均不符合题意,可以排除。
